After catching the shark on a rod, one of the fishermen shoots the shark multiple times in the gills as the two men laugh, the video shows.

“He didn’t even have the knowledge, the courtesy or the empathy to put the bullet in the shark’s head," Rector told WSVN. "He shot the shark repeatedly in the gills. Shooting a shark in the gills is not an instant kill. That shark bled out and suffocated.”

Unfortunately, this incident is not the first of its nature.

FWC received a video in June of a shark being dragged behind a boat. The agency is also in the process of investigating a video that purports to show a man using a shark's body as a beer bong.

The video of the shark being shot in the gills has now been made part of a state investigation.

“That video was forwarded to us as a result of the public outcry from the first shark-dragging video. The video is being investigated, and FWC can’t confirm identities," FWC said in a statement.
